Moody's also said the US Economy was sound before the great crash of 2008. If one delves into this false upgrade of the Ghanaian economy, one will notice there is something to be gained by Moody's or their affiliates,
If you were in standard 2 and for any reason demoted to class 1. And later they take you to class 2, you are not promoted.
You've made my day! Perfect and pristine logic.
THERE IS ALWAYS JOY WITH A POSITIVE LEVEL CONDITION.
How can it be an upgrade when you in the same B3 negative. Ghana was at B2 positive. Ghana has deteriorated rather. JDM is incompetent.
FAKE PHD HOLDER. What do you know
If NPP were corrupt ndc is in power what prevented you?you had 15 cases against them and lost all but I swear to GOD you will be jailed after 2017. Nothing is going to change the minds of the people,who cares about an opposit ...

How many votes will this attract for Nana . ? Npp must save money for 2020 elections
If Grade B- id 55 - 59 % and grade 55% is a negative outlook. We can say grade 58% is a positive outlook. But the grade is Still B-. The Outlook does NOT change the Grade. The Grade is Still B-. This is how I understand it. ...

In American system, B is an upgrade of B-. besides, B- and B are not in the same range as KK depi ...

If our son is last in class 6 and he is demoted to class 4 because of poor performance ,where he comes 10th in the lower class, should we congratulate ourselves?
For umpteenth time Dr Bawumia has been right
What kind of analysis is that @kk
Says a tribalis in a lecturer
This cheap economist do not know the difference between rating upgrade and an outlook change. Bawumia is absolutely right. The university should review the qualification of this economist
qualifications may equate to how learned one is, but very misleading as to how intelligent one may be.Or is it that the stomach sometimes make some learned people not think properly? This Dr must read kk's comment or his stud ...

Ignorance is the bain of failure..go and check the track record of bawumia before u make such degrading comment...lets be dispassionate in our ultrances rather than making unsubstantiated comment

No, it has not changed to a B. it is B3, which is Moody's language, same as B- which is used by Fitch and Standard and Poors. Google for yourself. Stupid idiot...

It is very sad that Mahama and his gang of thieves in the NDC do not understand simple English yet they want to rule Ghana forever. Ghanaians should never allow this to happen.

Hahahaha I expected this man to say so so I am not worried. He is so funny and think he knows it all.
oh Dr Gatsi!
Where did this idiot do his economics? B3 rating is junk and terrible, period.
Dr. Bawumia said it is not a new grade and that is factually true! The grade may be positive outlook, negative outlook or stable! We moved from moved from negative outlook to stable but we remained as B3
If NPP doesn't win this election, the party might just break up. The desperation with mischievousnes is reaching crescendo. One thing for sure, we'd all be cautious about them especially if you're not 18yrs before the 2000 el ...

Never in my entire life have i met a dishonest Muslim like Dr. Bawumia. And those who are more enlightened than him will just follow him like day old chicks following their mother. What a shame!!!!!!!!
Nobody will give you a minister so stop fooling yourself and continue to pollute your students even ordinary man on the street knows that economy is in a deplorable state.
John is a financial analyst and not an economist. He has never done economics before. However, as a lecturer in finance, I expect him to understand the sovereign credit rating. You are upgrade if you move up a grade or down g ...

Excellent! The best explanation so far.
Gatsi has a fake PhD from the Swiss Management School that awards fake degrees.
Folks Moody's outlook comment of negative to stable on B- or B3 credit rating is not a " Rate upgrade". So Dr. Bawumia is correct. The truth of the matter is the level of interest rate international investors (Banks/others) c ...

I will like to add to Kwaku`s insightful comment. My contribution is this if you medical doctor tells you your condition is stable it does not mean you have been cured.
Allotey, thanks for the analogy. May I ask, if your doctor tells you, your condition has changed from 'Critical' to 'Critical but Stable' will you be happier or not?
All these back and forth must be laid AT the doorsteps of the media! We aren't serious! How difficult is it to verify this from Moody's?...mtcheewwww
Bawumia is right,,check this is link

someone should stop foolish lecturer from lecturing before he poison his students with bad economy grades. when big brains are talking idiots like him must shut up
Bawumia's shame. So this so-called Npp brain 'hub' doesn't know that when negative becomes positive; it's an upgrade. Sad indeed. Ghanaians must be weary of npp.
it's childish to believe that nonsense by that good for nothing lecturer who is poisoning his students.
There is a difference with outlook rating and the rating itself. Ghana is still rated B3 but the outlook was revised from negative to stable. That fake economist called Gatsi needs to go and learn. No wonder he has a question ...

it was expected. this man with his background. not surprising. keep tickling yourself and laugh and continue behaving like ostriches

But ur so called Bawumia analyses things without political colours abiii.... Aaaaah u guys are very intolerant of divergent views
